Introduction

Between  the  dates  of  March  25  ‐ 29,  2017  and  August  21  ‐ 30,  2017  two  Very  Low  Frequency

Electromagnetic  (VLF‐EM) geophysical surveys were undertaken on the Jackfish and Kellyn properties.  

The purpose of  the work was  to delineate  conductive  structures possibly hosting gold and basemetal 

mineralization within the Terrace Bay Batholith granodiorite rocks of the Schreiber‐ Hemlo greenstone

belt.  The Terrace Bay Batholith is host to numerous small historic gold and base metal occurrences and

there is potential to find others, perhaps of economic significance in current times.

This report adds some additional information about the properties and the mining claims over which the

surveys covered and includes the survey reports in the appendices. 

Property Location, Description and Access 

The  Jackfish and Kellyn properties are  located within the Syine Township, on  the north shore of  Lake

Superior in northwestern Ontario, approximately 250 km east of Thunder Bay (Figure 1).  The property

area is centered on 504,091 mE  5,409,527 mN (NAD 83 Zone 16) or at Latitude 48° 50’ 19.3”N  Longitude

86° 56’ 39.3”W. 

Figure 1: Property Location Map. 

The property is accessed by travelling 20 km east of Terrace Bay or 63 km west from Marathon via Trans‐

Canada Highway 17.  The mining claims are readily accessible off the Highway 17 by All‐terrain vehicle

(ATV) along bush trails.

The terrain around the property is quit rugged and vegetation cover is moderately thick comprising mixed

conifers and trembling aspen with an undergrowth of young conifers and tag alder.  There is a sparse to

moderate amount of bedrock outcrop on the property, mostly along cliffs and at highway road cuttings, 

but exposure in the forest is commonly masked by moss cover. 

The VLF‐EM surveys were  conducted over  the mining  claims  listed in Table 1 and  shown on  the map

(Figure 2).

Regional Geological Setting 

The  property is  located  in the  Wawa subprovince of  the  Superior Province  of  the  Canadian  Shield

specifically the metavolcano‐sedimentary Schreiber‐Hemlo greenstone belt.

Figure 3:  Regional Geological Setting Map (after Ayres et al, 1970). 

Property Geology and Mineralization 

The Kellyn and Jackfish properties straddle the eastern margin of the Terrace Bay Batholith where the

granodiorite rocks of the intrusive come into contact with the greenstone belt sequence of the Scheiber

Hemlo belt in a combination of an intrusive and structural setting.  The various rock types that have been 

observed or interpreted to underlie the area are depicted on the property geology map in Figure 4.

Gold, silver and base metal mineralization is known to occur and has been mined historically from quartz‐

carbonate veins in three different settings across the region; as lenses or stringers within shear zones of 

the greenstone belt, as networks parallel to the contact between the batholith and supracrustal rocks and

as  fracture fill within the batholith.  The more prominent historical workings and  current mineralized 

showings are shown on Figure 4.

Exploration Work 

VLF‐EM ground geophysical surveys were undertaken to delineate conductive structures possibly hosting 

gold  and  base metal mineralization  within  the Terrace  Bay Batholith granodiorite rocks and provide 

definitive targets for drill testing.  The surveys were conducted by Superior Exploration, Adventure and 

Climbing Co. Ltd. Over two field programs from March 25 to 29, 2017 and August 21 to 30, 2017.  The

equipment, field methods and data processing are all described in detail in the two reports included with 

this report Appendices.  The grid lines in relation to the property mining claims are shown on Figure 2.

Conclusions and Recommendations 

Based on the data and image processing presented within the VLF_EM survey reports it was concluded

that  the reconnaissance method of VLF geophysical  surveying using  the EM‐16 was a valid and useful 

means  of identifying conductive  structures  on the Jackfish and Kellyn  property  mining  claims.  The

recommendations presented  in the survey reports will be followed up on  in the field over the coming

season.

Executive Summary This Test/Orientation ground VLF survey was completed on the Jackfish Lake Property, District of Thunder �ay in Northern Ontario; The property is located approximately 20 km; east of Terrace �ay, Ontario and is adjacent to Highway 17 at Jackfish Lake;

The survey was carried out in March 2017, using a VLF EM-16 unit and a handheld Garmin GPS-60CSX. Two transmitters were read at each station: NAA - Cutler, Maine and NML - La Moure, North Dakota.

A total of 5.2 Km of VLF was carried out over 2 grid lines on the Jackfish Lake Grid: Lines J38 and J40

A total of 10.02 Km was carried out over 10 grid Lines on the Cliff-Hematite-North Grid: Lines 00, 2N, 4N, 6N, 7N, 9N, 10N, 11N, 13N, 15N

The objective of the 2017 VLF EM-16 survey was to:

Determine if the VLF Survey could delineate the location of the structures on which the Cliff, Hematite and North Gold showing occur

Ground truth airborne EM conductors that crossed the survey area on Jackfish Lake and the Cliff-Hematite-North Grid

Identify if VLF conductors were apparent between the Cliff- Hematite-North showings

Determine if the VLF could interpret conductive zones or structures across the Jackkfish Grid and the Cliff-Hematite-North Grid

Deposit Types Gold in the Jackfish Lake area occurs in the following structural settings. • Mineralized shear/fault zones that occur in supracrustal rocks near the margins of the

Terrace Bay batholith. • Quartz-carbonate vein systems that parallel the batholith-supracrustal rock contact and

are located at or near the contact. • Quartz-carbonate veins that occupy late brittle fracture systems within the batholith.

Introduction A VLF-EM16 survey is a relatively simple and economic geophysical survey that is used to better understand shallow, vertical and sub vertical bedrock conductors.

This report describes the findings and results of the VLF EM-16 survey utilizing the VLF2DMF processing software of which the author of this report has assisted in its development since 2007. It enables the processing and inversion of electromagnetic (EM) induction data acquired along a survey area using a Very Low Frequency (VLF) (Santos 2013)

The software generates profiles of Raw Data, Fraser Filtered Data, KH, Resistivity and (2-D) Modelled Inversions

VLF data collected in the surveyed area was also compiled onto plan maps of contoured Fraser Filter data and contours of Resistivity data:

The VLF EM-16 survey consisted of running 10 VLF lines J38E J40E to cover the �liff-Hematite-North Gold showings in a direction of 44 degrees true azimuth using a VLF EM-16 unit and a handheld Garmin 60-�SX; Lines were 100 & 200 meters apart and two frequencies were read at 20 meter stations; Each VLF station was located based on a easterly azimuth and distance from the start of the survey line at south west side; The following parameters were used throughout the surveys:

VLF Transmitters Used: NAA - 24.0 KHz. Cutler, Maine (East) NML - 25.2 KHz. La Moure, North Dakota (West)

VLF survey direction: The VLF Em-16 receiver was facing 00 degrees (True North) along the 2 Jackfish Lake lines beginning in the south 0+00; On the �liff-Hematite-North Grid, the VLF receiver was facing 44 degrees with lines beginning in the southwest at 0+00;

VLF survey stations: !ll readings were taken at approximately 20 meter stations along the Virtual VLF lines;

Parameters of Measurement: In-phase and Quad-phase components of vertical magnetic field as a percentage of horizontal primary fields; (Tangent of tilt angle and ellipticity); VLF transmitter N!! was to the east, while transmitter NML was to the west; The transmitters are chosen so that the direction to the transmitting station is as close to the orientation of the bedrock strike;

VLF Data Collection Process

Field data was collected as follows on each surveyed line;

Each station was saved onto the Handheld Garmin 60�SX GPS Unit (including local features such as powerline poles, houses, and roads

VLF readings for each station were recorded in a notebook as In-Phase and Quadrature corresponding to the line number and station number; (See example in Table 1)

Field information was transferred to a Garmin map source program where line and station information could be viewed;

Garmin and VLF data were compiled onto an excel spreadsheet and then inputted into the VLF2DMF processing software; For this test survey all UTM Values are N!D 83;

Interpretation & Modelling

VLF2DMF Data Processing

All VLF data collected was processed and interpreted separately for TX NAA and TX NML. Profiles of Raw data, Fraser Filter data and 2D Inversion Models are included in the Appendix at the end of this report.

VLF2DMF Profiles & Models

Raw and Filtered Data Profiles The raw data for each frequency was plotted for each line surveyed. No filtering or smoothing of the raw data was done.

Fraser Filter Profile with Fraser Peaks Raw data was run through the Fraser filter. This filter transforms In-Phase cross overs and inflections into positive peak anomalies. (Fraser 1969) In-Phase inflections and cross overs are usually plus to minus, while Quadrature responses are negative to positive giving a negative peak anomaly when the Fraser Filter is applied. All Fraser Filter peaks are shown on the profile.

K-H Profiles Raw Data was run through the Karous-Hjelt (K-H) filter. The filter is applied to obtain a section of current density. The higher values are generally associated with conductive structures. (Karous, Hjelt 1983) If there is depth extent, this is shown on the In-phase profile as dark blue.

Resistivity Profiles: 4000 Ohm’s The apparent resistivity was calculated; The resistivity can be calculated if the mean environmental resistivity is known at the beginning of the VLF profile; ! mean resistivity of 4000 ohm’s was used for all lines;

Model 4000 Ohm’s ! resistivity of 4000 Ohm’s was used to build an initial model used in the inversion to obtain a realistic cross section of the line surveyed; Conductive zones are red/yellow while resistive zones are blue. A depth scale is found on the left side of model profiles. Surface conductive zones show little depth extent, have a horizontal display and are limited in depth. Fraser Filter picks are shown across the top of the models. When using a resistivity of 4000 Ohms, the depth of the model is determined to be 204 meters with Transmitter NAA and 199 meters with Transmitter NML. The vertical exaggeration of all models is 1.0.

Discussion of Results

Jackfish Lake Grid

Lines J38, J40

It appears that Jackfish Lake is underlain by a very resistive unit. The stronger NAA anomalies were interpreted into main trends, however, there are more, weaker ones that could not be followed due to the 200 meter spacing between lines. A more accurate result could be achieved with additional fill in lines being completed in order to verify responses.

Resistivity maps show more conductivity along line J38E, with several VLF anomalies within the lowest resistivity values. (NAA Map 4-C and NML Map 5-C)

Google images show the Fraser Picks and Trends on Jackfish Lake (NAA Map 6 and NML Map 7) There are many more VLF anomalies on both line J38E and J40E but because of weak responses, they cannot be traced between the 200 line meter separation.

Interpreted VLF Trends were identified for NAA (10 trends) and NML (11 trends) NAA:

Cliff Hematite North Grid

Lines 00, 2N, 4N, 6N, 7N, 9N, 11N, 13N & 15N The Cliff-Hematitie-North VLF grid was carried out on 9 Virtual VLF lines. Map 8 shows the layout of the VLF lines on an elevation contour map.

It appears that the Cliff-Hematite-North grid is underlain by mafic volcanics. Anomalies are strong and the main trends are easily interpreted between the 100 meter spaced lines and some of the 200 meter spaced lines. There are more, weaker Fraser picks occurring within the 200 meter spaced lines that could not be followed due to the distance between them. A more accurate result could be achieved with additional fill in lines being completed in order to verify responses.

The powerline affects several trends on lines 9W, 10W & 11W.

Several of the VLF trends follow an area of low resistivity. (Map 11-TX NAA) & (Map 15–TX NML). This is very apparent between lines 00 and 9W.

The main North showing trend follows a well-defined resistivity low from: NAA Line 00 to Line 15W NML Line 6W through to Line 15W

Conclusions

Jackfish Lake Grid

The Ground VLF EM-16 reconnaissance survey was successful in: a) Defining Several VLF bedrock conductors within a very resistive granite. b) Several of the reconnaissance lines have similar inversion profiles as the Cliff-

Hematite-North Grid c) Using a bedrock background resistivity of 2000 ohms gave us a modelled section to

144.0 meters in depth and outlined several highly resistive and minimally resistive rock units.

d) Several of the Jackfish NAA and NML Trends coincide with the NAA and NML trends on the Cliff-Hematite-North grid

e) With 200 meter spaced VLF lines, it was difficult to define trends between J38E and J40E. Only the strongest VLF anomalies could be matched.

Cliff Hematite North Grid

The Ground VLF EM-16 reconnaissance survey was successful in: a) Defining the Cliff Showing Line 00 (Pick D Figure-3 00 NAA, Pick F Figure-3 00 NML) b) Defining the Hematite Showing Line 7W (Pick G Figure-3 7W NAA) c) Defining the North Showing Line 10W (Pick-G Figure-3 10W NAA, Pick F Figure-3

NML) d) Defining a strong VLF trend on Lines 00 through line 9W that might be associated

with a lineament on strike to the south. e) Defining several other VLF trends.

Combined Grids - Fraser Picks & Grid Trends

There is good correlation between the Jackfish Lake and Cliff Hematite North VLF Trends (Maps 17 &18)

Recommendations

Jackfish Lake

a) View the Reconnaissance VLF lines J38 and J40 on Google earth images in order to identify linear structures that extend onto the main land, from where VLF trends are interpreted. (Maps 7, 8)

b) Run 100 meter in fill VLF lines to cover Jackfish Lake from the east shore to the west shore. This can be completed in the summer by Sea Kayak or in the winter on the frozen lake.

c) Run 1 VLF line at J39E and incorporate this data into J38E and J40E to better interpret trends of NAA and NML.

d) Run several 100 meter spaced VLF lines on the west side of Jackfish Lake in order to tie together the VLF trends from the Cliff-Hematite-North grid westward.

e) Ground proofing and prospecting along shoreline of Jackfish Lake. If this has been completed previously, then such data should be compared with the VLF survey trends seen on Maps 7 & 8.

f) Combining of all Jackfish Lake VLF data for TX NAA and TX NML with that of the Cliff-Hematite-North VLF data to produce plan maps of VLF Picks and trends for NAA and NML.

g) Split both J38E and J40E VLF Data into 2 sections for processing. This will allow better detail in the VLF profiles.

Cliff Hematite North

a) Ground follow-up of the North Showing Trend. (Maps 8, 12) b) Ground follow-up of the Cliff showing –Hematite Trend. (Maps 8, 12) c) Prospecting to the south of line 00 along the shear seen on Maps 15 & 16. d) Ground follow-up of other bedrock conductor trends to the northeast of the

Hematite and North showings. e) Trenching from the Hematite showing to the VLF anomalies on Line 7N (TX NAA

Anomaly 7N-F) and (TX NML Anomaly 7N-E) located 60 meters to the west of the Hematite Showing.

f) Trenching from the North Showing to the VLF anomalies on Line 7N (TX NAA Anomaly 7N-G) and (TX NML Anomaly 7N-F) located 20 meters to the west of the North Showing.

g) Run 100 meter fill in lines 1N, 3N, 5N, 8N, 12N, 14N to better define the NAA and NML trends defined in this test survey.

h) Run 100 meter spaced VLF Lines south of line 00 beyond the Powerline to define the width of the lineament seen on Maps 15 &16.

i) Extend the VLF lines further to the east in order to define the trends that occur at the edge of present coverage.

Executive Summary This Test/Orientation ground VLF survey was completed on the Jackfish Lake Property, District of Thunder �ay in Northern Ontario; The property is located approximately 20 km; east of Terrace �ay, Ontario and is adjacent to Highway 17 at Jackfish Lake;

The survey was carried out in August 2017 using a VLF EM-16 unit and a handheld Garmin GPS-60CSX. Two transmitters were read at each station: NAA - Cutler, Maine and NML - La Moure, North Dakota.

A total of 14.1 Km of VLF was carried out over the Rudy Block

The objective of the 2017 VLF EM-16 survey was to:

Determine if the VLF Survey could delineate the location of the structures on which several showings occurred

Ground truth airborne EM conductors that crossed the survey area on the Rudy Block

Identify if VLF conductors were apparent between the many old gold occurrences on the Rudy Block

Determine if the VLF could interpret conductive zones or structures across the Rudy Block

Deposit Types Gold in the Jackfish Lake area occurs in the following structural settings. • Mineralized shear/fault zones that occur in supracrustal rocks near the margins of the

Terrace Bay batholith. • Quartz-carbonate vein systems that parallel the batholith-supracrustal rock contact and

are located at or near the contact. • Quartz-carbonate veins that occupy late brittle fracture systems within the batholith.

Introduction A VLF-EM16 survey is a relatively simple and economic geophysical survey that is used to better understand shallow, vertical and sub vertical bedrock conductors.

This report describes the findings and results of the VLF EM-16 survey utilizing the VLF2DMF processing software of which the author of this report has assisted in its development since 2007. It enables the processing and inversion of electromagnetic (EM) induction data acquired along a survey area using a Very Low Frequency (VLF) (Santos 2013)

The software generates profiles of Raw Data, Fraser Filtered Data, KH, Resistivity and (2-D) Modelled Inversions

VLF data collected in the surveyed area was also compiled onto plan maps of contoured Fraser Filter data and contours of Resistivity data:

TX NAA Maps 4, 5 & 6

TX NML Maps 8, 9 & 10

Personnel The VLF EM-16 operator and GPS field navigator responsible for the collection of raw data was Shaun Parent, P; Geo; VLF2DMF Processing & Interpretation was completed by Shaun Parent and Sandra Slater;

Work Performed

Fieldwork

The VLF EM-16 survey consisted of running 10 VLF lines 7W, 9W, 11W, 13W, 15W, 17W, 19W, 21W, 23W, 25W to cover the Rudy �lock Gold showings in a direction of 44 degrees true azimuth using a VLF EM-16 unit and a handheld Garmin 60-�SX; Lines were spaced 200 meters apart and two frequencies were read at 20 meter stations; Each VLF station was located based on an easterly azimuth and distance from the start of the survey line at south west side; The following parameters were used throughout the surveys:

VLF Transmitters Used: NAA - 24.0 KHz. Cutler, Maine (East) NML - 25.2 KHz. La Moure, North Dakota (West)

VLF survey direction: The VLF Em-16 receiver was facing 44 degrees (True North) with lines beginning in the southwest at 0+00;

VLF survey stations: !ll readings were taken at approximately 20 meter stations along the Virtual VLF lines;

Parameters of Measurement: In-phase and Quad-phase components of vertical magnetic field as a percentage of horizontal primary fields; (Tangent of tilt angle and ellipticity); VLF transmitter N!! was to the east, while transmitter NML was to the west; The transmitters are chosen so that the direction to the transmitting station is as close to the orientation of the bedrock strike;

VLF Data Collection Process

Field data was collected as follows on each surveyed line;

Each station was saved onto the Handheld Garmin 60�SX GPS Unit (including local features such as powerline poles, houses, and roads

VLF readings for each station were recorded in a notebook as In-Phase and Quadrature corresponding to the line number and station number; (See example in Table 1)

Field information was transferred to a Garmin map source program where line and station information could be viewed;

Garmin and VLF data were compiled onto an excel spreadsheet and then inputted into the VLF2DMF processing software; For this survey all UTM Values are N!D 83;

Interpretation & Modelling

VLF2DMF Data Processing

All VLF data collected was processed and interpreted separately for TX NAA and TX NML. Although all profiles/filters explained below were used in the interpretation process, only the Raw Data, Fraser Filter Data and 2D Inversion Models are included in the Appendices at the end of this report.

VLF2DMF Profiles & Models

Raw and Filtered Data Profiles The raw data for each frequency was plotted for each line surveyed. No filtering or smoothing of the raw data was done.

Fraser Filter Profile with Fraser Peaks Raw data was run through the Fraser filter. This filter transforms In-Phase cross overs and inflections into positive peak anomalies. (Fraser 1969) In-Phase inflections and cross overs are usually plus to minus, while Quadrature responses are negative to positive giving a negative peak anomaly when the Fraser Filter is applied. All Fraser Filter peaks are shown on the profile.

K-H Profiles Raw Data was run through the Karous-Hjelt (K-H) filter. The filter is applied to obtain a section of current density. The higher values are generally associated with conductive structures. (Karous-Hjelt 1983) If there is depth extent, this is shown on the In-phase profile as dark blue.

Resistivity Profiles: 4000 Ohm’s The apparent resistivity was calculated; The resistivity can be calculated if the mean environmental resistivity is known at the beginning of the VLF profile; ! mean resistivity of 4000 ohm’s was used for all lines;

Model 4000 Ohm’s ! resistivity of 4000 Ohm’s was used to build an initial model used in the inversion to obtain a realistic cross section of the line surveyed; Conductive zones are red/yellow while resistive zones are blue. A depth scale is found on the left side of model profiles. Surface conductive zones show little depth extent, have a horizontal display and are limited in depth. Fraser Filter picks are shown across the top of the models. When using a resistivity of 4000 Ohms, the depth of the model is determined to be 204 meters with Transmitter NAA and 199 meters with Transmitter NML. The vertical exaggeration of all models is 1.0. Quartz veins and rusty zones found along the VLF line are shown on the model profiles;

Discussion of Results Lines 7W, 9W, 11W, 13W, 15W, 17W, 19W, 21W, 23W, 25W

The Rudy Block VLF grid was carried out on 10 Virtual VLF lines. Map 3 shows the layout of the VLF lines on an elevation contour map.

It appears that the Rudy Block grid is underlain by an Intrusive body. Some anomalies are strong and the main trend is easily interpreted between the 200 meter spaced lines. There are more, weaker Fraser picks occurring within the 200 meter spaced lines that could not be tied together due to the 200 meter line separation A more accurate interpretation could be achieved with additional fill in lines being completed in order to verify responses.

There is one main VLF trend that follows an area of low resistivity. (TX NAA Map 6) & (TX NML Map 10). This is very apparent between lines 7W and 17W.

VLF Anomalies All VLF trends are bedrock conductors and were identified for TX NAA (13 trends) and TX NML (11 trends).

Recommendations

a) Ground follow-up of VLF conductors with associated new discoveries of Quartz and Rust as found in Table 2

b) Run 100 meter fill in lines (8W, 10W, 12W, 14W, 16W & 18W) to cover the strong

VLF conductive trend that has associated rust in order to better define the NAA and

NML trend between Lines 7W to Line 17W.

TX NAA Trend 4 (7W-N, 9W-I, 11W-I, 13W-L, 15W-F, 17W-C)

TX NML Trend 3 (7W-L, 9W-M, 11W-J, 13W-L, 15W-F, 17W-B)

c) Run fill in lines in the areas near the best showings on the Rudy Block. Only line 25W

crossed over the Creek showing.

d) Extend the VLF grid to the south of line 7W to follow the strong VLF conductor Trend 4 South/Easterly.

e) Extend VLF grid lines 11W, 13W, 15W, 17W, 19W & 21W to the south in order to follow trend 4 North/Westerly.

f) Drill into the Strong VLF conductor with associated rust on line 13W (NAA-L) (NML-L) using the following parameters:

Collar Setup: Line 13W, Station 17+20N, UTM 504946/5409676 Azimuth: 44 Inclination: 45 Length: 150 M
